Default eBay "Selling Limits" - safe to open a 2nd account?

I have some accounts that have "Selling Limits" probably because I listed hundreds of items within a few days. Would it be safe to open another account with the same information and keep selling? Or would they get flagged, selling-limited too and potentially worse?

Of course if its the same info they can link them together and impose the same limitation on the new one(s) or they may see it as you are up to something sneaky and just completely shut them down.

Why would you list 100's of items from the get go? You need to research some threads here or purchase the stealth guide preferrably

Not from the get go. Some of the accounts have 100 or 200 feedback.

Sorry, I misunderstood your first sentence.

There is always the chance of same happening if same info is used with seperate accounts because that automatically links them together.

the second account would have its own limits, nothing to do with other account with same info.

Yeah but doesn't eBay suspend all your seller accounts if you have multiple ones with the same information, and ask you to submit a list of all of them for review? I've read something like that ..

^^no if one account goes NARU the rest are in danger too, therefore you must heed warnings and takedowns, 3 and you are out, so let account rest for 90 days after a takedown and switch to different account. Its a game..the outside world doesnt know who owns multiple accounts, but ebay has to show vero owners they are taking action, this is due to court cases, ebay dont care if you sell exact same thing on your other accounts. but once you get reported and they act upon it with a takedown they do not want you to relist it straight away on that account, for appearances sake, so you let it rest a while....

It's probably best you open more accounts that are completely separated from any other accounts you have to sell more on. Spread your risk instead of stacking everything on a couple of accounts.

ebay in ASIA has been doing that for the past two months reviewing multiple accounts. If all is legit, they usually pass.
You have options. Either have fully separate accounts ( different info) or a group of no more than 3 matching info accounts. depends on how seriously you sell.

reviews of multiple accounts, why do you think they are doing that? If all in same details is it ok then?
